摘要：

To evaluate the safety of onboard type IV hydrogen storage tanks in fire, numerical simulations of engulfed and localized fire resistance of a 70 MPa type IV composite hydrogen storage tank were conducted by applying computational fluid dynamics method. Firstly, the heat flux distributions on the surface of the tank were obtained by simulating the combustion fields under different fire conditions, which were then input as boundary conditions of the heat transfer analysis. Then the changes of hydrogen temperature, as well as wall temperature of each part of the tank under different fire conditions were analyzed in order to obtain the time before the temperature-activated pressure relief device(TPRD) opened, predict the critical locations of thermally induced failure, and evaluate the fire resistance performance of the tank. Finally, according to the influence of localized fire locations on the activation time of TPRD, feasible proposals were raised to improve the fire resistance performance of onboard high pressure hydrogen storage tanks. The results show that the fire resistance of the tank meets the requirements of engulfed fire test; in oil pool fire, the round shoulders at upper part of both head and tail of the tank are most likely to fail first; the temperature distribution of hydrogen in the tank has little effect on the temperature of liner; if the localized fire is far from top of the tank, before it develops into engulfed fire, the contribution of the flame to the temperature rise of TPRD is tiny, which presents an extreme risk of safety. © 2022 Central South University of Technology.
